The average American household goes through over 600 baby food jars during baby’s first year. That’s a lot of empty glass baby food jars! Personally, I’ve always hated throwing away small jars. Every time I am washing one out in the sink I think to myself, “There must be something else I can do with this, right?” Baby food jars are especially adorable and begging to be upcycled. I mean, there are just so freaking many of them.

But don’t worry, mamas—help is here. The world is full of crafters, and I’ve found some of the most genius baby food jar crafts out there. Seriously, these baby food jar crafts are completely epic, and completely doable. Check them out in the slideshow and get crafting.
